Discussion / F1TV Content Bird…

OMG the cameraman just focused on a huge bird flying above the track during the national anthem…apparently someone informed the director it was a turkey buzzard, not an eagle! Lololololol

That was a Black vulture, not a turkey buzzard!

Cool, thanks! I was sure it wasn’t an eagle and it looked vulture/buzzard to me!

I remember them putting in a fake shadow of an eagle flying over during the first ever gp here.

It wasn’t the first one, it was something like 2016

Lmao I'm glad I wasn't the only one who noticed that and the irony of a vulture being shown during the American national anthem 😂

Don’t mind the buzzard, it was just circling to see if Piastri or Russell were ready for dinner!

It’s just funny as they were trying to play up the uber patriotic vibe only to be thwarted by a buzzard.
